Chad Kuhl didn't have his best day on the mound and the Altoona bats weren't that great either until Willy Garcia and Dan Gamache hit back-to-back ninth-inning home runs, and the Curve lost to Erie, 6-4.
Kuhl, like all of Altoona's staff, has been good this year, but he was touched up for six runs on 10 hits in five innings. He did strike out six and walk one, but he appeared to struggle with his command, in my very much amateur eye. His sinker sat in the 91-93 miles-per-hour range, according to a helpful AL West scout.
